DEVICE DESIGNED TO ATTACH AT LEAST ONE CABLE ALONG A PIPE, AND METHOD OF IMPLEMENTING SUCH A DEVICE
The present invention concerns a device (1) designed to attach at least one cable (2) along a pipe (3), the device (1) comprising: a base (10) constituting a part of maximum height (H10) of the device (1); a channel (20) that extends along a longitudinal axis (X1) on an upper side of the device (1) and which is intended to receive the cable (2); a support surface (30) which is formed on a lower side of the device (1) and which is intended to rest against the pipe (3); two jaws which are formed protruding from the base (10) on the upper side, which border the channel (20) on either side of the longitudinal axis (X1) and which constitute a clamp (12) provided to grip the cable (2); and a transverse passage (40) which is formed through the base (10), between the channel (20) and the support surface (30), and which is intended to receive an attachment member (4) to press the device (1) against the pipe (3); characterized in that the device (1) comprises a longitudinal extension (50) prolonging the base (10), more elongated than the base (10) and having a height (H50) decreasing overall moving away from the base (10) along the longitudinal axis (X1).
Power lead for swimming pool cleaning robot
The invention relates to a power lead for a swimming pool cleaning robot. Said power lead comprises a rotary connector and a buoyancy means supporting said rotary connector. An upper part of said buoyancy means is a cap shaped to slide under a swimming pool cover, under the effect of a traction exerted by the swimming pool cleaning robot on the buoyancy means through the power lead.

Buoyant marine electromagnetic cable assembly
Embodiments described herein provide an EM source cable assembly with a buoyant member having first and second ends, and a longitudinal axis connecting the first end to the second end, and a plurality of indentations disposed along a surface of the buoyant member between the first end and the second end, wherein the indentations are operable to receive corresponding cables. The indentations extend along the longitudinal axis, and may be arranged helically about the longitudinal axis. The buoyant member may have a low density core material and a dense outer material, each of which may be a polymeric material. The low density material may be a foam, and the buoyant member may be formed by coextruding the low density material and the dense outer material.
System for subsea pressure booster power supply and distribution, method for operation and use thereof
The invention provides a system for subsea pressure booster HV (high voltage), MV (medium voltage) and LV (low voltage) power supply and distribution. The system is distinguished in that the system consists of, essentially consists of or comprises: a supply cable without a connected variable speed drive/variable frequency drive (VSD, VFD); at least one subsea pressure booster, and; one subsea direct online switch (SDOS) for each subsea pressure booster, wherein the supply cable at a source end is coupled to an AC power source at a topside, onshore or subsea location, wherein the supply cable at a pressure booster end is coupled directly or via a distribution device to at least one subsea direct online switch, SDOS, wherein each SDOS is coupled to one subsea pressure booster. Method of operation and use of the system.
